Never seen that done before. That guy has some serious talent.
The guy on the keyboard wasn't half bad either.
Good piece.

awesome sax lines around the 2:00 minute mark. And the flute has great timbre/color.

I can appreciate the skills there but I just dont like the music. But thats just me,so dont feel offended.
Im of the taste where I like the Sax in funk and the blues more. Love it when its punctuating the music and accentuating the percussion more than running through endless scales.
